Kerrie, you're right. This is for 2009, awarded in 2010. The Anthony, Edgar and Macavity Awards have all gone to the format of year awarded. I checked my announcement, and it said 2010, but I guess IACW is still using the older format of year in which written. Thanks for clearing that up. I'll fix it on the site.
